    Hi Karen,

    Thanks so much for your question. VAT laws are very black and white in regards to this. Architects, Surveyors, Structural Engineers, consultancy and supervisory services are always standard-rated because they offer a service rather than supplying materials and labour. As such, this is a set fee which is not eligible for VAT reclaim.

    Best of luck with your plans,
